Brakes problem
2004 Chevy Cavalier 4 cyl Front Wheel Drive Automatic

when applying brake, car will not stop. you have to push real hard on th brake. It feels like at end of brake traval. Even tho brake can not be push any the further, car will slow down to a stop. Pads are fine and no leak.

Then you may have a bad brake booster but it's not something that you are going to find the solution to online. It needs to be physically inspected by a qualified tech before someone gets hurt.
